This guild and it's mages were the least of all people that Frederick wanted to encounter right now, especially since he had crossed their paths on more then one occasion in the past. In those past occurrences he had tried to inflict harm and suffering on the mages of Eclipse Soul, probably resulting in some of them still holding a grudge against him. Just as he held a grudge against some of it's members as well.
However Frederick knew that it was only a matter of time before Eclipse Soul was alerted by his presence, so he could only try to act as quickly as possible.
The reason Frederick was here was rather simple, in the past months since Frederick had joined Sabertooth. He had gone on his own personal crusade to find and rid the world of the former dark mages that had escaped the Council's wrath, after Savage Skull's attack on Magnolia over three years ago.
However the execution of that crusade was a bit more difficult as it seemed to be. Most of those who'd escaped were talented dark mages that were high up in the Savage Skull hierarchy, and mostly wouldn't go down without a fight. And on top of that, they were hard to find.
But every now and then some information reached Frederick, be it through old underground contacts, or an article in a newspaper regarding some murder. And as a dog that was used for hunting, Frederick did everything in his might to track him down.
